The recent advances in the study of eIF5A have shown a huge impact of its function in the protein synthesis process, more specifically, in the elongation step of mRNA translation. In the last years, eIF5A was involved in the translation of proteins containing sequences, or motifs, with three or more proline residues (poly-P) in a row, throughout the stimulation of the peptidyl transferase…
The bacterium Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) is the causal agent of citrus canker, a severe disease that affects citrus plants worldwide. An effective control for the citrus canker is not available yet, and the elimination of infected plants continues to be the recommended practice to control the disease. Although the genome sequence of Xcc has been available for almost a decade, li…
Recent data from our group (research grant FAPESP 2010/05099-7 and PhD scholarship 2010/02041-8) showed that ParB encoded by Xanthomonas citri (Xac) is involved with chromosome segregation, and we also noticed the existence of phenotypic similarities between the segregation-cell division processes of Xac and C. crescentus. If our suspicious are correct, Xac may exhibit a control of septat…
